This red is supposed to be happy this time of year. Red bows, red Santa suits, red candy canes, red Holly berries. Not something you want to see in your toilet bowl....my husband says he feels fine and yet we can’t deny this unexpected holiday hue. It will be weeks of test before we know anything...so sure let’s pile this on on top of Covid, and missed time with family, and economic struggles...I wonder if anyone has thought to ask God if he’d consider a ban on illness and death and strife for say two weeks in December? After all he knew to rest on the seventh day, surely some more time at year end is well deserved. Holidays are often tough enough, without additional tests of our mortality and one’s faith. Do we really need to tinker with free will as a test of humanness everyday? Would be nice if we all could just enjoy the calm, joy and peace of the season the carols hark unto us without having to prove anything for a few days....

Some people are feeling intense feelings right now as a result of the pandemic. Is anything making you especially sad, angry, or hopeful right now? If so, what's on your mind?
There are a lot of feelings being experienced right now and for me personally it's sadness. I feel sad because with the restrictions being lifted this week I feel like we are setting ourselves up to fail. I feel like we just got to a good solid point and while COVID-19 is around it is always going to be something we watch out for yearly. That saddens me. It makes me sad to know that there are people not taking any of this seriously and want to claim that they "knew it all along". Then there are the people who did everything they were asked and are getting treated badly by other people calling them "sheep". Look we all have our own opinions on what to do or how to do it but antagonizing others needs to stop. When are people going to be kind to one another?
